CO - Central Office If there are 600 of them, it contradicts the term. There can only be one center. |

 | No.
A CO refers to the main center for a wire center. Every small to moderate city or larger needs one. |

To add confusion to the mix, most CO's have "switches" which would have just about everything else that handles T1's to OC192's. Some refer to them as switching centers, Super node computer centers, network centers or just good ole switch sites. POP's are just point of presence where one telco has established a cage of eqp at the LEC for hand off purposes.  |

|
 | But they're the CENTER of the wire center. They're not regional offices. |
